We have had some issues with specific browsers working with Zoom. Our recommendation is to download and install the Zoom software prior to the meeting.
Here is a link to the Zoom App download page:
https://zoom.us/download
. Both Windows and MacOS versions of the app are available to download.
The Zoom app software to install are also available here:
MacOS:

For witness testimony:
Please fill out the registration form here:
https://leg.colorado.gov/testimony
After registration, you will receive a confirmation email with the Zoom link to remotely join the committee where the hearing item will be heard.
All witnesses may join the meeting remotely by clicking on the Zoom link up to 30 minutes prior to the start of the meeting.
Once you click on the link, it should automatically fill the password field but it may not fill in the fields for your name or email address. Once the fields for name, email, and event password are filled in please click the "Join now" button. If you have installed Zoom app you will not need to use the “Join by browser" option.
Once joined in the Zoom event, you will be participating as an attendee.
The Colorado General Assembly uses Zoom Events (not Webex Meetings) for remote participation in committee hearings. When a witness joins Zoom events, they join as an attendee. An attendee can only listen unless un-muted to speak by the Zoom host. Attendees do not have the ability to show video, un-mute, or screen share. That is, until the Zoom host promotes the attendee to a panelist once it is their time to talk. When the committee chairperson calls the witness to speak, the Zoom host will promote the witness to be a panelist. Once you become a panelist, the Zoom controls for video, and un-mute audio will then be available and function as intended.
